Annual Pass Holders: Please Help CM's confused about room discount!

[fortheloveofamouse]

Is there a website where you can check the rates for annual pass holders discount? I was looking at the first week of Feb (2-9) and I had two CM's tell me totally different stories. On said there was availibility at Saratoga and the other said there is nothing at all for that week. There had to be a code or something because I had a price qoute for a studio at Saratoga. when I called back 5 min. later to book, the Cm said no availibility for annual pass. I was only going to buy the pass for the discount, so I have no way to access the pass holder website. Can anyone help?

Have you looked at the Passholder section at waltdisney.com? wdwinfo.com also has information. I cut and pasted the following from there -

• 1/1/08 - 2/13/08 - The Booking Code is FHD

The FHD discount begins at:

• $49 at a Value Resort Sun - Thurs
• $69 at a Value Resort Fri - Sat
• $99 at a Moderate Resort
• $149 at a studio at Old Key West or Saratoga Springs

Good luck!

Keep in mind that the passholder site has been wrong during this promotion. The weekends are indeed discounted, but it doesn't come up on their website. Mousesavers has posted this and has warned folks to call and not rely on the info on the passholder site. I have found the info on the Florida resident site to be correct, so I check availability on that site and then call. I had PO-FQ for $99 a night for Saturday January 26, but the website/AP shows $149. I switched to Pop for the same Saturday and booked at $69 for that night, and the website shows $99. I am holding a room at Pop for Sunday Feb. 3 and am canceling that today as we decided to use our DVC points. I have the night of Sunday Feb. 3 for $49 for the night. I did hear that availability is low for that first week of February. My theory has always been that lots of folks try to get in one more trip before the rates go from value season to peak season. There may be some conventions and sports groups in that week too. To the OP: try doing your room searches throught the Florida resident website -- you can't book it, but it will help you check availability as the Florida resident and AP holders rooms come from the same group. I use the zip code 34711. (Remember you still have to call once you check to see what's available.)

I just went to the websites and it's not showing any availability for any dates I put, so I assume their reservation site is not currently working. Try back later. I even tried full price and got nothing no matter what the dates.

There website is working again. I tried your dates and there is nothing at any value or moderate for AP discounts (or Fl. resident discounts). The only thing available at the AP rate was the DVC locations of SSR or OKW. I didn't try the delux as they are higher than the DVC resorts. This is an excellent deal since this is the price of a moderate at rack rate, value season (actually $145).
